WILKES-BARRE — Those old enough to live through the Agnes flood of June 1972 had their minds refreshed at the F.M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts, when the Wilkes-Barré Preservation Society presented “A Documentary Film: Agnes 50th Anniversary” on the anniversary date of the flood.
Editor’s Note: This report on how local media covered the Agnes flood comes from a 10th anniversary retrospective published in 1982. It has been edited slightly for publication here.
